Fills the slot in my type set. It has a nice balance of luster, toning and hits which makes for nice eye appeal. What do you think she grades. BTW it is professionaly graded.

  • nice one! i've always loved that light peach colored toning. i give it a solid 63 with a good shot at 64 simply due to strike and luster

    Not one of my seated dimes looks that nice.

    High end 63 but with a bump to 64 due to the nice strike.

    I was guessing it graded a 64,

    what was the assigned grade?

    It's graded MS63/63 on an old Anacs photo certificate.

  • That is a very nice coin. I just started looking at seated pieces, I think I will be in the market for one soon. Do a lot of them have poor strikes? It seems I see them in upper grades but the relief seems poor, especially in the dimes.

  • Beautiful coin!
  • that's so pretty. I'm just beginning to get into seated coins. You guys have such nice stuff. I'm going to try and stick with a low-to-mid-grade date set, with a few sliders thrown in. Maybe mostly Civil War era for a while. This Walker set I'm about to finish has about kicked my tail.
